All entries for the 2014 Competition are now in the hands of the Judges, and pretty soon the ASA will be publishing the long awaited ‘SHORTLIST’. Throughout the last month, my fellow Directors and I have overheard snippets of songs as the Judges began the huge task of going through all the entries to whittle them down. We have all ended up excited and anticipating a bumper year from what has come to light so far. Each and every year the standard of songwriting just seems to improve, and it is a matter of contentment for me personally, to know that amongst our ASA Members we definitely have some of the best Songwriters in the country. Roll on November! Also, this month I want to direct all Members to our Regional Coordinators page. We now have RCs in every State and lots of regional areas as well. The only Capital City we are not represented in is Darwin, and I hope that can be rectified when I visit the Northern Territory on business this month. The ASA RCs are all doing fantastic things for our Members, so don’t forget to support them at the Wax Lyricals. In the meantime, whet your appetite by reading this month’s eNewsletter, excellently edited as usual by your Vice Chairman Alan Gilmour. Alan puts a great deal of time and energy into the magazine, and the result always brings forth an entertaining and informative missive.

She has written poetry and stories from an early age, but it has only been in recent years that she has combined this talent, with her life-long love of music, into songwriting. Describing her work as “Music from the soul for living and exploring”, the source of inspiration for many of her songs is travel experiences and chance conversations. She writes across a wide range of genres. Listeners of Jill’s music have often commented on the catchy melodies and beats. Descriptions have included: “melodic”, “feel good”, “rhythmic” and “sophisticated”. Jill released her debut album, “Homecoming”, with ten original songs, in May 2011, followed by five singles. Her second album, “The Summer Project”, followed in November 2013. Nine of her tracks have reached the finals or have been shortlisted in International and Australian song competitions. ASA: Jill, would you please tell us why you call your music “Music from the soul for living and exploring”? Jill: Many of my songs were inspired by travel experiences (both overseas and local) or come from reflecting on an earlier experience while travelling. I find that being in unfamiliar surroundings is always good for the creative process, anyway. A number of other songs came out of inward journeys- daydreams and dreams- part of the ongoing quest we all have to make sense of life. So there is this ethereal quality to a lot of my songs, I think, which a few people have commented on. ASA: Why did you come to music composition after being involved in writing poetry and stories for so long? Jill: Music was always a thread running through my life, although I don’t come from a musical family. My earliest music memory was humming tunes while on a swing when I was about nine. Then, growing up, there was this intense emotion around music which never really left me, but for the most part it was in the background. 4 I was always writing poems and I even wrote one about music. I have just retrieved it now. It was pretty bad, though one line “[music] fills in the spaces that experience leaves” may be alright, then again! Fast forward to about seven years ago, and I started doing some singing and spending time with musically inclined people, and suddenly had “the moment”, where I knew this was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life, and the songs started to tumble out. I was worried for a while that the ideas would dry up but it hasn’t happened yet. ASA: What do you think differentiates your music from other people's music? Jill: That’s probably more for other people to say. I don’t try to write in a particular style. I have had comments like “inspiring” and “poetic” and “themes that most people can relate to”. So yes, my music does seem to be on the deep and meaningful side! Also when I write, it often starts with a phrase of lyrics and melody together, and then the whole song builds from that. There’s this great line in the movie, “The Words”, which says “At some point, you have to choose between life and fiction. The two are very close but they never actually touch”. I think a lot of my songs flow through that narrow channel between imagination and reality. ASA: What is the best thing about songwriting, for you? Jill: One of the best things about songwriting is when you find out that someone has been influenced by something that you wrote. So for example, when I get a new fan on internet radio, or they make a comment, and I think that maybe they have played one of my songs more than once because something resonated with them. That feeling is just amazing! ASA: What are your plans for the future? Where are you hoping that music will take you? Jill: I want to keep writing, get better at it, and work more with other musicians. And I’d like more people to hear my songs. I’ve had some interest from publishers but nothing concrete has eventuated yet, so it would be great to have some licensing deals happen, or for some songs to be covered by a major artist. But meanwhile on the reality side, I’m really enjoying how my music is evolving. 5 ASA Member Profile: Fiona Karamanlidis Fiona Karamanlidis is a multi award-winning, independent songwriter, composer, producer and pianist from Adelaide, South Australia. Fiona has received numerous awards in various musical genres from professional music industry organisations since 2005. These include the Australian Songwriters Association, Songwriters Composers & Lyricists Association of South Australia and the South Australian Country Music Association. Fiona was a Finalist in the 2013 MusicOz Australian Independent Music Awards and the Tamworth Songwriters Association National Songwriting Competition in 2014. Fiona's Musical Styles are very diverse, and include Adult Contemporary Pop, R&B, Country, Jazz, Ballads, Gothic Rock Ballads, Classic Rock, Electronica and Instrumental. Fiona's songs can be described as eclectic, unique, atmospheric, haunting, emotive, with a touch of the mystic, creating a perfect ambience for Television and Motion Picture soundtracks. Fiona sourced some emerging and very talented local singers and musicians to work on her songwriting projects, notably including Trevor Warner (Australian Bluegrass Pioneer & father of Kym Warner, founding member of successful US Bluegrass band, The Greencards) and Rob Chenoweth (Adelaide-based trumpeter, who has worked with the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra, Jerry Lee Lewis, Ray Charles and Kenny Rogers).

  • THE JOHN BYRNE BAND the John Byrne Band Is Led by Dublin Native and Philadelphia-Based John Byrne
    THE JOHN BYRNE BAND The John Byrne Band is led by Dublin native and Philadelphia-based John Byrne. Their debut album, After the Wake, was released to critical acclaim on both sides of the Atlantic in 2011. With influences ranging from Tom Waits to Planxty, John’s songwriting honors and expands upon the musical and lyrical traditions of his native and adopted homes. John and the band followed up After the Wake in early 2013 with an album of Celtic and American traditional tunes. The album, Celtic/Folk, pushed the band on to the FolkDJ Charts, reaching number 36 in May 2015. Their third release, another collection of John Byrne originals, entitled “The Immigrant and the Orphan”, was released in Sept 2015. The album, once again, draws heavily on John’s love of Americana and Celtic Folk music and with the support of DJs around the country entered the FolkDJ Charts at number 40. Critics have called it “..a powerful, deeply moving work that will stay with you long after you have heard it” (Michael Tearson-Sing Out); “The Vibe of it (The Immigrant and the Orphan) is, at once, as rough as rock and as elegant as a calm ocean..each song on this album carries an honesty, integrity and quiet passion that will draw you into its world for years to come” (Terry Roland – No Depression); “If any element of Celtic, Americana or Indie-Folk is your thing, then this album is an absolute yes” (Beehive Candy); “It’s a gorgeous, nostalgic record filled with themes of loss, hope, history and lost loves; everything that tugs at your soul and spills your blood and guts…The Immigrant and the Orphan scorches the earth and emerges tough as nails” (Jane Roser – That Music Mag) The album was released to a sold-out crowd at the storied World Café Live in Philadelphia and 2 weeks later to a sold-out crowd at the Mercantile in Dublin, Ireland.
